Jason Plautz

Jason Plautz started as an intern for mentalfloss.com in 2007 and now does quizzes and posts about politics, sports, movies, and anything else that crosses his radar. Based in Washington D.C., he writes for InsideClimate News and has had work appear on TheAtlantic.com, Pacific Standard, and National Journal. He hopes that someday he'll see a Northwestern bowl win and any Cleveland championship, but is not optimistic about either.

DID YOU KNOW? Marlon Brando hated memorizing lines so much that he posted cue cards everywhere to help him get through scenes.
He even asked for lines to be written on an actress's posterior. (That request was denied.)
